| Precision Grade | As-printed typical part accuracy of ±0.1mm for the first 100mm, with an additional ±0.05% of part length thereafter. Surface roughness (Ra) as-printed is typically 6-15 µm depending on orientation and parameters. Post-machining can achieve tolerances down to IT6 or better (e.g., ±0.01mm) on critical features. |

| Factory Advantage | Effectively managing the low thermal conductivity of Ti-6Al-4V is critical to prevent warping and residual stress during DMLS. Our strategy hinges on the EOS M 290's exceptional process stability and advanced inert gas flow management, which minimizes localized heat accumulation and oxidation far better than standard machines. This allows us to build complex, delicate geometries like dental abutments at optimized orientations, achieving near-net-shape parts that adhere to ASTM F136 standards directly from the build plate. This MechanoFab process eliminates the high-risk secondary 5-axis micro-milling operations where competitors struggle with tool deflection and tolerance stack-up. The result is superior part integrity and the consistent repeatability demanded by ISO 13485 and FDA Class II/III regulations for critical medical implants. |
